    Everyone is so opposed to using the new terms because they feel like it gives Elon some kind of win. Personally I think using them unironically highlights the stupidity of the name.

      It is more that we don’t care how businesses decide to call themselves.

      They can rebrand as much as they want to try and get rid of their bad image. But we’ll remember what they did, and remind them every time we use their old name.

      I still call it Facebook as well.

      In what way. I’ve never put my hand over a hot stove to prove how stupid it would be to do that.
